Re: Makes no sense. 
I think everyone understands the quote has to be multilied
by 100. BTW, you should multiply the $60.00 strike
by 100 also!

Re: Conservative options trades 
Looks like 'funny' math to me. Let's break
it down. Payoff at expiration if unchanged $33.60
= $32.90 + (2 x $.35) Yield 2.7% = (33.60 / 32.70)
-1 I don't know where you came up with the $1.90
BTW, given the same...

Re: Makes no sense. 
Easy mistake to make. The $38.30 quote is for the last
trade but you have no idea when that happened. Probably
weeks ago. Take a look at the current bid/ask, $56.50/$57.10,
for a more reasonable idea of the current...

Re: beginner needs help 
I can only answer question #1 - NO! I don't understand
the situation you describe with you London broker.
My only comment to you is that unless you are completely
confortable with them and fully understand what..

Re: Q: Bid/ask spread - expiration week? 
I'm assuming this is a covered call? Why not just
let it get exercised? You can buy back the stock and
may end up paying less in commissions than the option
spread...

AKS will be above 20 at expiration. If you think it

like an easy 2.8...

Re: bac 
Maybe a stupid question but....You are obviously bullish
on BAC. Instead of buying the 15's why not buy
an equal dollar amount of the 12's? Much higher
delta so your position should turn profitable...
